My choice was (in order of preference) any green, any blue or girigio titanio with a light interior - crema, sabbia, tan.

I found GT with sabbia.

Be a little careful with some of the interior colours, they can photograph quite different to reality.

I adore tan, but very few UK cars are specced with tan, many have variations of cuoio (which is basically the word Leather in Italian).

Some of these are as orange as David Dickinson after a month in Benidorm. They do little for me, but might be right up your street!

Apologies if I've posted this information already. I haven't been paying attention to this thread.

Last time I checked, which is now some time ago, there were 234 RHD FFs registered in the UK. Of those, 4 were green, 21 blue and 88 grey (grey, in various shades, being the most popular colour).

Tan interior is not strictly Ferrari nomenclature. It is generally used as a synonym for both Beige and Cuoio. I assume you are using it to mean beige. I have 18 cars with beige interior (7 with blue exterior and 6 grey - no green and none of the greys are Titanio).

Any thoughts on this car please?

I note that I first saw that car a week before it was registered and several times since It was previously for sale in mid-2021 asking £98,500.

I knew there were only a few green cars but I didn't realise there were only 4. The last one I saw for sale was the Mexico Green one at Meridien Modena some time back.

I also didn't realise there were so few blues.

It goes to show if you're fussy (like I was) I was probably only waiting for one of 10 or so cars to appear, so I had to open up my range a bit.

crazy value for these, esp when you contrast it to the v12 puro which will most likely be £500k on the overs market

What I call Tan is what Ferrari refer to as beige tradizione.

So you're probably right in that Beige would be a more accurate description.

My car is Grigio Titanio Metallic with Iroko Daytona interior. Absolutely love it. I know some people don't like it but I feel that it makes the interior feel very special.

I gave £125k for it around a year go with just over 10k miles on the clock. Purchased from Meridien Modena with two years Ferrari warranty. I've not needed to use the warranty and the car has been very reliable. Meridien sent up a new battery about one month into ownership and thats about it.

Will be keeping the car for a few more years because the thought of replacing it with something comparable and is just to stressful to think about :-)

I'm still weighing up potential purchase but my specialist keeps warning me of potential issues.

Obvious one, ptu. They've had a few ff's in for work and advised me to avoid. Everyone's entitled to their opinion I suppose.

£8k at SS Autotech/Parkes sorts you out with a permanent solution. Just factor that into your budgeting decision and you’re golden.

As above, there is now an £8K permanent solution for that, that's £8K fully installed.

Permanent sounds good. The Ferrari fix isn't permanent is my understanding so would re-occur.

I was at a Ferrari breakfast morning at Colchester moments ago. This has just landed with them, not even advertised as yet. Blu America (I think it's called) with beige interior. It was a very overcast morning which made showing the paint in its true colour quite difficult. Spoke to the salesman and he said will probably go up for around £120,000. It was mentioned here a few posts ago that someone was looking for this spec? If so, act fast as it wil sell fast.





And for colour reference (plus a chance to post a pic of my own FF!) Here is black and tdf blue in the same conditions:

I was there too with my FF. A great meet with lots of lovely cars.

Speak to Stuart he sorted me out with a great car, enjoying the whole Ferrari package. Mine came with 2.5 years warranty too

8k plus VAT so 9.6k
